apple_platform

Corresponds to Xcode's notion of a platform as would be found in Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms. Each platform represents an Apple platform type (such as iOS or tvOS) combined with one or more related CPU architectures. For example, the iOS simulator platform supports x86_64 and i386 architectures.

is_device

name_in_plist

The name of the platform as it appears in the CFBundleSupportedPlatforms entry of an Info.plist file and in Xcode's platforms directory, without the extension (for example, iPhoneOS or iPhoneSimulator).This name, when converted to lowercase (e.g., iphoneos, iphonesimulator), can be passed to Xcode's command-line tools like ibtool and actool when they expect a platform name.
